Titanium is working... and right now, I don't have all my apps [little over 120] installed only because of the constant reflashing of new versions of ICS. Aside from system apps, I have about 40 user apps installed right now. When I did have all my apps installed, I still didn't see the launcher reload.
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
I'm quite jealous of those getting good battery life :/ I use the phone with little use and the battery life is quite discouraging, won't stop me from using the rom though X)
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
I remember seeing the 3G script during the alpha stage. What does it exactly do? Just makes sure that the modem works?
[Captivate Android Development] spacecase-25:
Awesome, thanks. I'll give this a go later today.
[Captivate Android Development] cjd80:
this probably goes without saying, but have you recalibrated your battery? I usually use the app "battery calibration" free off the market after flashing a new rom and it makes a surprisingly big difference.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
I am not sure what it exactly does, but I did have to use it during one of the Alpha releases. I have not had to use it in Beta, but I figured that it couldn't hurt if you are having connectivity problems.

Come to think about it, I think that it changes some script that has to do with your 3g.
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
Actually yes I have, but hasn't helped me much. I also have Juice Defender Ultimate and that isn't helping me either. All I really do is calls and text since I want the battery to last :P Before this rom I used to do many things :3
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
As you see in several posts above this one, I got 1 day 12 hours out of a moderately used battery. I use CPU Master, set to default.
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
I'll give it a shot, I had it before but it seem's to do exactly the same thing as Set CPU so I uninstalled it.
[Captivate Android Development] shadvich:
Are there any battery percent mods for ICS Captivate? I found some for i9000 but I don't think they are compatible.

Just flashed, looking good so far, haven't tried gps or looked at battery life though
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
Check this thread, it works for Vibrant. i9000 is very close to a Captivate, that is why all Captivate builds/kernels come from i9000.

I'm on Beta 2 (the new one) with Beta 2 Kernel and seriously loving ICS.

Aside from some difficulty getting apps to restore from TiBu (I had to install the apps from market and then restore data from TiBu), I've had 2 noteworthy issues:

Google+ went crazy. I hadn't even opened it once and it ate all my battery and would not turn off. Freezing it with TiBu did nothing. I uninstalled it: problem solved.

I had the same issue with Gallery. Gallery would run constantly and keep my CPU chugging away. I think it was trying to sync? But it wasn't using any of my data, so... I've turned off Photos syncing for my google accounts and *so far* that's solved the problem.

Other than those issues I'm finding battery life on par with CM7.

Boot animation

Does anyone know how I can get rid of the boot animation with the flying android ICS man (which looks like it was created sometime around the same era as the first iteration of Where in the World is Carmen San Diego), with the simple greenish ANDROID word boot animation?
[Captivate Android Development] Sgt_Bilbo:
That's just the boot logo for the kernel. If you go to the downloads for all the ROM parts, you should see a file for the official ICS boot animation that you can flash in CWM. Absolutely beautiful on our SAMOLED screens.

Hey Dude,

just got it to work. Download this beta 2 :

http://code.google.com/p/ice-cream-...il?name=ICS_4.0.1_r1-Beta2-i9000.zip&can=2&q=

unzip it, and go to system/app and get the maps.apk out of it. Then just install it like any other apk. It is not maps 6.0 but at least you have maps running.
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Not sure if it's the same file he asked about, but I saw the file bd-ics-bootanimation-flashable.zip which, from the jpg frames, looks pretty awesome. Maybe a stupid question, but... can we flash this even if we're not on this/an ICS ROM? I'm currently using Apex 11.1 which is Android 2.3.5 (I9000-based), using I9000 bootloaders.
[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
OMG thank you! and also can you make them stick? cause everytime i reboot the phone, it removed the voodoo settings.

on a side note, i couldnt get a damn thing to work with alpha 7. I tried doing the script for the data, didnt work. and it got to the point where i couldnt even send a freaking text! ill try again, but ya. any help would be awesome thanks

i flashed back to cm7 and im still not getting any service? ummmm?
[Captivate Android Development] everest.deth:
Quick question here, has anybody reverted to anything non-ICS? Today I have to embark on a business trip and wanted to carry a different ROM that i could rely on 100%, and was unable to restore nandroids nor flash a CM7 zip.

I think that the Kernel may have something to do with it? :confused:

I am having problem getting into recovery on A7. Any help is appreciated.

I guess that would be through recovery though right? I kind of borked my recovery :p

[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
Check your imei. Your efs may not have restored. You should have a backup somewhere (especially testing an alpha build) but it might have backed it up under sdcard/backup/efs

[Captivate Android Development] Thnikk:
It should work as long as the rom supports custom boot animations since they're all in system/media (apex is pretty popular so I'm pretty sure it does.) No harm in trying.
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Yeah it even has one, I just didn't know enough about them to know if there was anything unique about Android 4.x boot animations that would make them incompatible.

Lies! ;) Haha. But I'll try anyway. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] spacecase-25:
Just flashed and restored my apps with TiBackup, but sadly my launcher is reloading every time I close an app. Seems like the Captivate just doesn't have an ideal amount of memory for ICS. I've got the fancy widgets weather widget, ubermusic, and power control as well as 2 pages of icons.

Media scanner also doesn't seem to be picking up music files on my external SD card (photos show up in Gallery tho).
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
I would flash to stock, and start over. Mine has only on a very rare occasion reloaded. Also, I don't use Music, but I do use Winamp and it sees my music files just fine.
[Captivate Android Development] spacecase-25:
Flashing back to stock and starting over is the obvious fix everything solution, I agree. But I've experienced this before and started from scratch so I'd be very surprised if that fixed it. I think it's either caused by restoring with TiBackup (might test this theory later) or something that will improve when the nexus s source code is released. Either that or it's just low RAM.

Out of curiosity, do you have widgets on your home screens?
[Captivate Android Development] cliftomr1082:
DemonWav, I know there seems like nothing but a ton of problems going on with ICS, but are you still with us. You haven't seem to responding to anything lately.

Just hang in there, I know y'all will get things worked out with Beta 3.

You and other devs working on ICS are doing a good job. Thanks go out to everybody.
[Captivate Android Development] SAHorowitz:
I know most posts on any rom appear to be negative -- problems and the like -- but I have to say in all honesty that this rom is the best, smoothest, longest lasting battery (thanks to xxProphecyxx for CPU Master info) rom I have run. And I have run some real good ones. I know not everything is working yet, but I just wanted to throw in a big thanks for this effort. I am having a great time with my cappy and making others jealous that I am on ICS. :D

I am a truly happy customer and excited by what the next beta will bring.

If you are using the beta2 labeled Beta2, you will most likely need to wipe data before you get usb working again.

Yes, I run some widgets on my home screens. I have a digital clock widget, facebook widget, twitter widget, executive assisstant widget, CPU Master widget, and Pandora widget.

Here is a link to another ICS thread I am watching with information about low RAM... it is suppose to be a fix, I am not sure if any of this works as I have no problems with my RAM being low.

[Captivate Android Development] cppc:
It's not like I'm complaining :), I really happy with this ROM. I just want to provide some of my observation here, may be they're bugs, may be just the way ICS works:

- Phone: Previously we are able to dial by name. For example if I press 2326 it also finds name ADAM, or BEAM :D. Now just number. This is fine, of course, the only problem is that my friend is usually jealous that his iPhone cannot do that, so I want to remain superior to him :D

- Seems like Wifi does not work with Enterprise network (for example, in a university), or at least with my university. It can connect to, but can't do anything further. I'll double check with that.

- Web browser in Landscape mode, we can slide down a window to close it. In Portrait mode, we have to slide left or right. I don't know if this is a bug, but I still prefer to slide down :D
[Captivate Android Development] spacecase-25:
I think maps was causing a massive memory leak. I've removed it and seem to have much more memory free and in turn my launcher doesn't restart nearly as much. I'll look at that fix too and see what's good with it.
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
How long does it stay on the boot animation screen. It doesn't seem to go any further.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
1st boot, a couple of minutes.... subsequent boots, less than 30 seconds. If you are stuck, pull battery, boot into CWM, and reflash ROM, then reflash kernel.

Hey, I'm on the newest Beta 2 with Fugumod Kernel, but I'm having an issue with data, I think? I'm not positive if it's just a bug or not, but I've reflashed twice as well as ODIN'd twice to flash this and I can't seem to get any higher data icon that G or E? I'm not sure if that is a bug or whatnot, but I'm stuck on G and it'll sometimes switch to G. I flashed to Legend V1.3 KK2 to see if I liked it (which I didn't) and I know it flashed my modem, so I'm starting to think that is what did things, but I'm at a loss as to what modem I'm going to want. Before I was getting an H and 3G logo in my bar, though, so I'm doubting it's this rom specifically. I'm on AT&T also, so if anyone has any insight on what modem or something to that accord I need to use, I'd be a pretty happy camper :)

my phone was warm to the touch for some reason? ive been running this rom for a while now and its the first time thats happened. usually the battery life is just average bad.. ive never made it a whole day, im usually charging on my way home from work. i do have cpu master, but its overclocked at 1300.. ill try 1000 and see if it makes a difference.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
Yeah... 1300 is probably why it is like that, I have mine set to 1000 and I get 1 day 12 hours on a battery at moderate use.

From the other ICS thread, in "Fixed Issues" on their new Build 7.1:

Ok, I got solution, disconnect wifi and after that scan for wifi.

When you get access wifi point, keep pressed on one, and you will get menu "Connect to network". On next menu scroll down and check "Show advanced option", scroll more down and now user can set static IP address, DNS, Gateway, etc ..

[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
I have seperate batteries [3 of them and a battery charger], so I don't have to plug in. After I flashed the new Beta 2 ROM and my battery died. I boot into CWM and reset battery stats. Then boot up phone. I downloaded CPU Master [free on market], ran that [default settings], click the set on boot box. That was all that I did, I used it as I normally would for my day to day use.

Right now, I am at 12 1/2 hrs with 78% left.

Do you have it set to scaling on demand? I don't really seem to notice any difference in battery life and from what I can tell it's always at 1000mhz.

Yeah, it is set at [ondemand]. If you get CPU Spy, then you can see what your phone is operating at. Gives a list of all the mhz in different incraments. 100, 200, 400, 800, 1000, 1200, 1300.

12 hours is what you should be getting. There is no problem with your phone. I assume you're actually using it. If you weren't using the phone at all and it was dying than you should have an issue.

Over the weekend I barely used my phone and I reached 1.5 days twice. Monday I went to school and listened to a lot of music and used my more a bit more and i got 6-7 hours out of it.
